MAGA-Owned Business Accused of Sneaking Immigrant Workers Into U.S.
A Democratic lawmaker is calling for an investigation into a company owned by two of President Donald Trump’s biggest campaign donors over its use of immigrant labor.
Milwaukee City Council member JoCasta Zamarripa publicly criticized billionaires Richard and Elizabeth Uihlein on Facebook after an investigation by The Guardian found that their Wisconsin-headquartered company brought in workers from Mexico to U.S. warehouses on visas not intended for full-time employment.
“This is the rigged system in plain sight: billionaires fund the crackdown, then exploit the very people targeted by it—because they think money shields them from consequences," Zamarripa, who is running for the Democratic nomination for Wisconsin secretary of state, wrote on Facebook this month.
Uline, the company owned by the leading MAGA donors, is a leading distributor of shipping, packaging, and industrial supplies. According to its website, it employs over 9,000 people across North America, including in Mexico.
In December, Vice President JD Vance held a rally at one of Uline’s warehouses. During the event, Vance stood on a stage bearing a banner that read “Lower Prices, Bigger Paychecks.”

the perfect choice
Trump ramps up rhetoric on undocumented immigrants: 'These aren't people. These are animals.'
--------------
Remember:::: whatever bad that Donald says about "illegals"/undoc immigrants, he would rather hire them than pay Americans.
The very same "illegals"/undoc immigrants that he blames for so much crime.
He only quit hiring them when it became politically inconvenient.
And assumed it was because they used union workers and paid good wages.
I'll let myself out...
